Confidence has to be the #1 change. I would have never thought I would have been able to run a half marathon let alone a marathon or 50 miler!
I am a true running nerd. I love all of the articles, learning about the elites, and everyday runners. The more the better!
I love the feeling after any run—good or bad. The extremes in temperature in Central New York is intense and makes me feel like a bada$$. What they say about never regretting a run—it’s true!!
Green Lakes State Park and the surrounding roads. There is one hill that I couldn’t run up when I first started running distance. I still get a rush when I cruise up at full speed!
My Hoka Cliftons. The 7 is the best yet!!
I was never remotely athletic. “I was an indoor kid” is something I say when presented with a new outdoor challenge. I also apologize in advance for cursing if running with new people.
Running the New York City Marathon. I lived there in my 20’s for three years. I left due to the grind getting to me, so I always thought of it as a failure. That would be my victory lap!
